When it breaks

When it breaks,
Appropriately in the dead of the night
When things come to a close

Where it breaks,
Appropriately within a similar, much bigger symbolism as itself

Who breaks it,
Appropriately oneself, for whom it represents

Something of glory, a faraway dream-like past;
(A jar pickling the totality of youth, passion, ambitions, aspirations,
Identity -- or prototype thereof)

A bystander, or participant, of the scene -- depends on how you see it --
Appropriately the youth just like oneself was
Before breaking

When it breaks,
Cracks appear on my heart, it too almost breaks
Invisible fragments bursting, a firework of entropy
But when it breaks,
Something was set free
